The UAE Fuel Price Committee has officially announced the fuel prices for April 2025, setting diesel at AED 2.63 per liter and Super 98 petrol at AED 2.57 per liter. While these prices reflect the global market trends, they bring up important questions about their impact on consumers, businesses, and the overall economy. A Positive Development for Consumers? For everyday consumers, any decrease or stability in fuel prices is often welcomed. Lower fuel costs mean reduced transportation expenses, which can have a ripple effect on the cost of goods and services. Households that rely on personal vehicles may find some relief in their monthly budgets, particularly those who commute long distances for work or leisure. Implications for Businesses and the Economy On the business side, fuel price fluctuations directly impact operational costs. Logistics companies, taxi operators, and delivery services may benefit from stable or reduced prices, potentially leading to lower service fees for end c...

He went to the ISS on March 3. The UAE astronaut launched into space with three other Crew-6 members on a SpaceX Falcon-9 rocket on March 2. On March 14, he wrote on Twitter, “No matter where I am in the world, my path always leads me home. And even from Space, the site of our beautiful country takes my breath away every time.” He shared his first photo of the UAE from the orbiting laboratory. Last month, he spoke with the UAE public during a series of live calls from the ISS. Salem Al Marri, director general of the Mohammed bin Rashid Space Centre, lauded his efforts. 
The Emirati astronaut is expected to work on over 200 experiments and research work by US NASA and various UAE universities. He has been assigned to study human heart tissue as part of his research.
His journey into space will be six months. He is the first astronaut from any Arab country to spend six months on the ISS. He is expected to be in charge of doing scientific work.
He is expected to complete the work assigned to him by Nasa, the Mohammed bin Rashid Space 
Centre and other 19 UAE universities. According to The National, he can also perform the first spacewalk by an Arab astronaut. 
Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the vice president, prime minister, and minister of defence of the UAE talked with Sultan Al Neyadi in March through a live video link-up on Nasa TV.

Enhancing Relationships: Sheikh Khaled’s Trip to India Signals a New Phase of UAE-India Relations.

-
The visit of H.H Sheik Khaled bin Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi to India is more than just a mere ceremonial occasion; this visit stands as a clear testimony of the longevity and dynamism of UAE-India relations. This association has become complex over time involving not just the economy but also major concerns such as sustainable development, trade, climate action etc. The dynamic relationship between the two nations has been redefined from their historical links into contemporary strategic alliances which makes this visit a natural follow-on from long-standing ties. Relationship between UAE and India are very historical in nature that started during the time when Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan was the founder of UAE, whereby his coming to India in 1975 established strong cultural and diplomatic ties. This has been done through several high-profile exchanges including the signing of the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership Agreement in 2017 which made these...

The UAE's AI Ambitions Get a Boost with Nvidia Chip Approval: A Game-Changer for the Gulf Region.

-
The advance made by the United States in the approval of cutting-edge Nvidia chips to G42 is a historic development for UAE’s artificial intelligence ambitions. This strategy thus not only represents significant technological growth but also marks an important political milestone for UAE that wants to portray itself as a global hub for technology. In particular, accessing advanced AI technologies such as Nvidia’s H100 models has been significantly hindered over the years due to fears about UAE-China relations, with the US tightening its export restrictions in the area. However, this recent endorsement—a fact which received little attention—shows that there is now greater strategic flexibility and demonstrates how committed UAE is towards ensuring it stays clear from any possible Chinese influence if it wants to become one of our most reliable partners. The timing for G42’s bold distribution of these Nvidia chips could not be better. With worldwide AI rivalry heating up after the advent...
